thats great but i got him beat i have had my 66 ss for 34 years

 

camaro 69 how long have you had yours

 

I got mine in the 95 I think. So only 18 years. I only pad 6K for and have yet to anything to it beside some small engine upgrades and a new top.

 

everytime I hear you tell that story Gorn.... Im just like wow. Thats a beautiful Camaro. Ive never been a Convertible Camaro fan... yours is my favorite by far.

 

I got mine back in 04. So, pushing 9 years.

 

I guess when I think about it Im pushing 6 years now even though Ive never driven the thing. and I have Gorn beat cause I only gave $5k for it. lets not talk about what Ive spent or how much work Ive had to do to try and get it back on the road.

 

I got you beat in the miles racked up department, but not by a lot. I never hooked up my speedo because the rear gears makes the needle wrap around a couple of times!
But knowing where I've taken it, and not, I'll bet I haven't put on much more than 2k miles in these 9 years, if that much even.

 

holy crap, I plan on driving mine all the time. I know Ill drive it at least 3 days a week. the wife and I go walking 3 nights a week at a local track about 2 1/2 miles from the house. so at a minimum 15 miles a week for starters.

 

You're in a little nicer area for weather....at least till hells kitchen fires up in the heat of the summer. I'm automatically down and out 6 months of the year. I have an everyday car, the Vette is the fun car, the Camaro is the fun-fun car (taken out every so often when conditions are "just right"). This past summer, a couple trips into town, one or two blasts around "the block" (which is more like 2 miles), and one car show trip into another town. All that is less than 100 miles. The summer of 2011, other stuff ate up my time and the Camaro never left the garage.

 

I have only put a few thousand miles on mine. I would drive it more on the weekends but I am scared to park it in any lots. Someone swipes the gas cap and that 80 bucks and Im stuck with a repop. With 4 kids there is not a lot of time for joy rids. the plan is in the future to drive it more but it is going to need better seats. Those are the original ones and I have a bad back

I did not buy the car as an investment. I bought it because i wanted it. That $6,000 (might have been $6500) was the best investment I made. I have less than $8500 in the car, if I sold it today I would guess i would see a profit
